This study found that a hair growth rate of 0.75 cm/month better matches retrospective cortisol timelines and identified factors influencing hair cortisol content in children and adolescents.

This study developed a liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry method to detect sex hormones in health supplements from Hanoi, Vietnam, finding three out of 16 samples contained sex hormones, including banned testosterone at low levels (~0.5 mg/kg).

Men with CCCA often face delayed diagnosis and severe hair loss, highlighting the need for earlier recognition and treatment.

This study identified a new cis-regulatory element in the mouse Hr gene that influences its expression in skin and brain cells, highlighting a complex molecular network involved in hair follicle formation.

This review discusses the definition, causes, diagnostic strategies, and treatment options for hirsutism in women without reporting new clinical results, and highlights the impact of the condition on self-esteem.

This study found that 5% primed conditioned medium from human umbilical cord blood-derived mesenchymal stromal cells significantly improved hair density, thickness, and growth rate in patients with androgenetic alopecia.

In this study from a south Indian hospital, idiopathic hirsutism was the most common cause of hirsutism, with a significant portion of affected women also displaying features of metabolic syndrome.

This study established a rapid and accurate ultra-performance liquid chromatographic method for chemical fingerprinting and analyzing Platycladi cacumen, effectively distinguishing batches based on geographical and climatic conditions.

This case report describes an instance of autosomal recessive uncombable hair syndrome caused by maternal uniparental disomy of chromosome 1.

This study concluded that antimullerian hormone levels are not generally effective for distinguishing late onset congenital adrenal hyperplasia from all hyperandrogenic polycystic ovary syndrome subtypes, except one specific subtype.

A new genetic mutation in mice causes permanent hair loss and skin wrinkling.

This article reviews central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia, including its various forms and potential multifactorial causes, but provides no new clinical findings.

This study concluded that a 26-year-old woman had autosomal dominantly inherited hereditary cortisol insensitivity, leading to increased adrenocortical cortisol and androgen secretion, which caused clinical symptoms unlike in her male relatives.

This study found that hirsutism is more prevalent in Chinese women with PCOS compared to the general population, and the Ferriman-Gallwey score is a good predictor for diagnosing PCOS in this group.

This study found that the new HCC additive enhances the permeation of pigments and active ingredients into hair, suggesting potential use in developing functional cosmetic hair products.

This article discusses skin lesions in chronic graft-versus-host disease and highlights the importance of coordinated care between haematologists and dermatologists for effective management; it presents no new clinical results.

This case report describes a 78-year-old male with adenocarcinoma and Hypertrichosis lanuginosa acquisita, highlighting the need to consider malignancy in patients with unexplained excessive hair growth.

This study identified three variants in the HR gene among Mexican patients with alopecia areata, with one novel variant potentially serving as a risk factor for the disease.

This study found that plantar dermis matrix homogenate can partially restore the regenerative capacity of hair follicles impaired in culture, with CTHRC1 playing a critical role in this process.

This review discusses the etiology, diagnosis, and management strategies for hirsutism, noting that serious underlying disorders are rare and emphasizing targeted treatment to manage testosterone's effects.

This article reviews clinical signs and treatment options for hyperandrogenism in women, emphasizing cyproterone acetate as the most effective antiandrogen for severe hirsutism, but reports no new clinical results.

This case report describes a 46,XY female patient with a novel homozygous nonsense mutation in the LHCGR gene, highlighting the need for molecular analysis in disorders of sexual development.

This case report describes a 19-year-old patient with systemic lupus and a composite heterozygosis SC with thalassemic component, highlighting the diagnostic challenge when symptoms of both conditions occur simultaneously.

This study suggests that hepatocellular carcinoma in cirrhotic men is associated with altered sex-steroid metabolism, indicated by lower testosterone and 5 alpha-dihydrotestosterone levels compared to cirrhosis alone.

In this study, researchers found that CCCA in women of African descent is associated with molecular changes, including dysregulation of fatty acid metabolism and fibrosis pathways, suggesting potential targets for new treatments.

This study identified a novel heterozygous missense mutation in the hHb3 gene associated with monilethrix, highlighting its role in this hair disorder.

In this study, a Chinese Han family with hereditary vitamin D-resistant rickets was found to have a homozygous missense mutation in the VDR gene, and the affected individual uniquely responded well to treatment with oral calcium and low-dose calcitriol.

This study suggests that measuring scalp hair 17-hydroxyprogesterone and androstenedione concentrations can be a promising tool for monitoring treatment in children with congenital adrenal hyperplasia.

In this study, eight patients with hereditary vitamin D-resistant rickets who share a specific VDR mutation showed improved clinical symptoms except alopecia after up to 11 years of treatment.

This review discusses the clinical features, genetics, and treatment of 21-hydroxylase deficiency, a common type of congenital adrenal hyperplasia, and reports no new research findings.
